Expo Cheat Sheet

Expo Cheat Sheet

Commands I often use developing React Native apps.

Development

• Start expo client(managed workflow).

  npx expo start
  

• Start dev client bundler(bare workflow).

  npx expo start --dev-client
  

Bare Workflow

• Build then run Android and Dev dev clients on devices respectively.

  npx expo run:ios -d
  npx expo run:android --device
  

  Specify product flavor development build type debug.

  npx expo run:android --device --variant=developmentDebug

Build

• Create iOS build. By default kicks off the build on EAS with production profile.

  eas build -p ios
  

• Create an iOS build using the development profile defined in eas.json

  eas build -p ios -e development
  

• Create an iOS build on local machine.

  eas build -p ios --local
  

• View status of the last EAS build.

  eas build:view
